I produced a video called Strangers Inna Strange Land, where I basically invite
people to think on the several dimensions of a controversial issue such as
Migration, share ideas with others in order to collectively search for win-win
solutions. Please watch the video, rate it, comment it!

Plus, I made a TR9 video playlist with excerpts from movies, videos…check it

"In Memoriam"
"In memoria"
His name was
Moammed Sceab Si chiamava
descendant Moammed Sceab
of nomadic emires
he took his life Discendente
because he had no
Fatherland di emiri di nomadi
suicida
He loved France perché non aveva più
and changed his name
Patria
he was Marcel Amò la Francia
but he was not French e mutò nome
and did no longer know how
to live in the tent of his people
where one listens to the sing-song Fu Marcel
of the Koran ma non era Francese
whilst relishing coffee
e non sapeva più
and he did not know how to vivere
melt nella tenda dei suoi
the song of his leaving
dove si ascolta la cantilena
I accompanied him del Corano
together with the lady owner of the hotel gustando un caffè
where we lived in Paris
at number 5 rue des Carmes
a withered down-sloaping alley E non sapeva
sciogliere
He rests
in the churchyard of Ivry il canto
a suburb which always seems to be del suo abbandono
in a day
of a
decomposed wildelife
L’ho accompagnato
insieme alla padrona dell’albergo
and maybe only I dove abitavamo
still know
that he lived a Parigi
dal numero 5 della rue des Carmes
appassito vicolo in discesa.

Riposa
nel camposanto d’Ivry
sobborgo che pare
sempre

NO IT’S NOT PHOTOSHOP. THIS IS REAL STUFF.
IT’S A ROAD SIGN ON SAN DIEGO FREEWAYS.
DRIVERS ARE ALERTED TO POSSIBLE MIGRANTS
RUNNING ACROSS TRAFFIC LANES, LOOKING FOR EL
NORTE. BUT, WAIT A MOMENT…THE TERM
“PROHIBIDO” IS NOT THE ENGLISH FOR
“CAUTION”. SO WHAT? ACTUALLY, THIS
*PROHIBIDO* SIGN TELLS MIGRANTS THAT IT IS
*FORBIDDEN* TO RUN ACROSS TRAFFIC LANES (AND
US BORDERS?) THIS ROAD SIGN REPRESENTS
CONTEMPORARY WORLD: WE ARE WALLED IN,
BARRICATED TO DEFEND OUR RICH PROPERTIES &
LIFESTYLES FROM CROWDS OF STARVING,
DESPERATE, HUMAN BEINGS. THEY ARE CITIZENS
OF OTHER COUNTRIES, TRYING TO FIND A BETTER
LIFE AND HAPPINESS FOR THEIR FAMILIES.
SOUNDS FAMILIAR? NATURALLY, BECAUSE WE ARE
ALL HUMAN BEINGS. I THINK THIS IS NOT THE
KIND OF ROAD SIGNS THAT HELPS HUMANKIND TO
MAKE PROGRESS ON ITS PATH. THIS PROHIBIDO
SIGN IS LEADING ALL OF US ASTRAY.
LET’S GO BACK ON TRACK.
Di
You, Whoever You Are
You, whoever you are!...

Vi
All you continentals of Asia, Africa,
Europe, Australia, indifferent of place!
All you on the numberless islands of the
archipelagoes of the sea!
All you of centuries hence when you
listen to me!
All you each and everywhere whom I
specify not, but include just the same!

Ne
Health to you! good will to you all, from
me and America sent!
Each of us is inevitable,
Each of us is limitless—each of us with
his or her right upon the earth,
Each of us allow'd the eternal purports
of the earth,
Each of us here as divinely as any is
here.

ly Walt Whitman
Did you know?
the presence ofpeople from foreign
countries in Italy, at the beginning of
2008 (latest figures available), was 4.328
thousands, of which 3.677
thousands in possession of a legal
entitlement for their staying Subdividing by
nationality of origin, the first in rank are the
Romanians, with around
625thousands legal residents, and a
little less than 800.000 people including
illegals. In percentage, the first three
nationalities in terms of presence;

Romania (18,2%),
Albania (11,7%)
Morocco (10,7%)
total more than 40% of the total immigrant
population. Migrants tend to follow networks and
to reside in economically strong territories,
therefore it is not a surprise that Northern
Italy totals a 62,5% of all foreign-
origin residents, while only a 12,5% live
in Southern Italy (Sicily and Sardinia
included), and the remaining 25% lives in
Central Italy.

This Moment Yearning and Thoughtful

This moment yearning and thoughtful sitting alone,


It seems to me there are other men in other lands yearning and thoughtful,
It seems to me I can look over and behold them in Germany, Italy, France, Spain,
Or far, far away, in China, or in Russia or Japan, talking other dialects,
And it seems to me if I could know those men I should become attached to them
as I do to men in my own lands,
O I know we should be brethrem and lovers,
I know I should be happy with them.

this moment…
In questo momento in cui siedo pensoso e solitario

In questo momento in cui siedo pensoso e solitario, struggendomi,


So che altri uomini, in altre terre, sono pensosi e si struggono,
E che potrei vederli, alzando gli occhi, in Germania, in Italia, in Francia, in Spagna
O più lontano, in Cina, in Russia, in Giappone, parlando altri dialetti,
E so che se potessi conoscere quegli uomini saprei attaccarmi ad essi
come agli uomini delle mie parti,
E so che ci ameremmo e saremmo fratelli,
So che sarei felice insieme a loro.
Walt Whitman
(1819-1892)
walt whitman:
cut-up by pica
Walt Whitman parla chiaro e con gentilezza. È sano,
robusto, forte come un cavallo, compiacente,
compassionevole, unitario, eretto.

È a suo agio, pago, sazio,


ozia solitario, si bea..
Un po' discosto, separato da
ciò che attira e trascina,
augusto, immortale,
turbolento, sensuale,
affezionato, tracotante,
elettrico, un cosmo.
Esperto di terre, rocce, fiori, stelle,
avendo studiato il canto del mimo
poliglotta e il volo del falco di montagna,
Walt Whitman parla chiaro, le misure
sono esatte.
Walt Whitman parla chiaro, le misure sono esatte.

Walt Whitman parla chiaro, le misure sono esatte.


Walt Whitman parla chiaro, le misure sono esatte.
